Pearl 4K UHD pack shot

PEARL (USA / New Zealand 2022)

Limited Edition UHD (£36.99) | Standard Edition UHD (£24.99) | 17 November 2025

Discover this Pearl of a movie in horror maestro Ti West’s devastatingly brilliant prequel, that breaks open the origin story of one of modern horrors most iconic figures, played by the queen of horror herself Mia Goth (Frankenstein, Infinity Pool, Suspiria). The film is the latest to receive a Second Sight Films Limited Edition makeover.

The award-winning second movie in the X trilogy heralds the return of Goth in a career defining performance as the young Pearl, a woman so desperate for stardom it drives her to the point of insanity and murderous mayhem. Praised by audiences and critics alike, the film immediately found its rightful place as a horror classic on its 2022 release with The Guardian saying: ‘Goth is now the Judy Garland of horror’ and the legendary Martin Scorsese calling it ‘mesmerising… powered by a pure, undiluted love for cinema’.

Now, witness the technicolour majesty like never before, as the new Pearl 4K UHD Limited Edition Box Set is set to arrive on 17 November, alongside a Standard Edition.

The Limited Edition Box Set is presented in a stunning rigid slipcase with new artwork by Thinh Dinh that perfectly encapsulates the spectacular visuals of Pearl and a brilliant 120-page book featuring all new
essays. Both editions come complete with a slew of special features including new interviews with the director, cast, cinematographer, production designer and much more. Please see the full list of features
below.

Texas, 1918, we meet Pearl Douglas, the daughter of German immigrants, who lives on the family farm, while her husband Howard (Alistair Sewell – The Power of the Dog) is away, fighting in the First World War. The young dreamer spends her days under the watchful eye of her overbearing mother, Ruth (Tandi Wright – Nothing Trivial, Creamierie), caring for her sick father (Matthew Sunderland – Out of the Blue, 6 Days), while longing to escape her hellish existence and find fame on the stage.

After meeting a handsome projectionist (David Corenswet – Superman, Twisters) at her local cinema, Pearl is encouraged to pursue her dreams and when the opportunity to audition for a touring dance company arrives, she is finally given the chance of a lifetime. However, as the romantic fantasy of glamorous stardom fades, obsession and violence consume Pearl, and her ambition knows no bounds, as she desperately attempts to prove that she’s a star.

With influences from The Wizard of Oz and Mary Poppins to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Norman Rockwell, Pearl is a vivid, psychological nightmare with stunning visuals and a romantic score, set amongst alligator infested lakes and decaying dreams.
